About Product
Human knowledge about Nature and its processes have accelerated many fold during the 20th Century; as also the human capabilities to engineer the Nature’s resources on a mass scale for human consumption. Most of the dreaded diseases of past centuries have been eliminated. World population may touch 10 billion by 2050. Impact of human activities on Nature may threaten existence of Life on earth. Therefore the human beings during 21st Century have to learn to live with Nature. There is no going back to the distant past; nor continue 20th century methods. This is a challenge: sharp disparities in consumption between Nations and within societies are stark. India has a special challenge: how to solve the immediate problems of poverty and the slow down of economic growth and at the same time minimise use of Natural Resources. Chapters address these vital issues with practical suggestions for governance, business policies, science, technology and engineering from Agriculture to all sectors. The readers can, after reading the book, equally contribute, with informed minds.
